你可能会比平时感到更加疲倦，更加缺乏活力或者动力——你在办公室中的工作效率可能也会显著下降。但是你有可以战胜它的方法。以下就是11个小贴士，它们能够让你在阴冷的冬季保持工作效率。

Get physical. 锻炼身体

Moving your body with regular exercise bore, after or during work, especially outdoors, helps reduce stress and improve sleep, says Ned Russell, an executive vice president at Publicis Groupe. “And the sunshine you feel from being outside may give your spirits a much-needed lift.”

在上班前后或者工作中间用规律性的锻炼来运动你的身体，尤其是进行室外运动，这有助于减轻压力和改善睡眠，阳狮集团的执行副总裁内德-罗素称，“你在户外所感受到的阳光可以给你的精神带来急需的振奋作用。”

Start your year over. 重新开始你这一年

If you think you’ve ‘blown it’ for 2017 because you’ve already broken your New Year’s resolutions, think again, says Casey Moore, The Productivity Coach.

如果你认为由于已经无法坚持自己的新年决心，因此你已经“搞砸”了2017年，再重新考虑一下，工作效率教练凯西-摩尔称。

“First, simplify so you focus only on one or two. Next, start your new year today. January 1st is arbitrary anyway. Forget the old all-or-nothing thinking and restart your new habit any time you slip into old behaviors.” This may give you the motivation you need to be more productive at work.”

首先简化你的目标，只专注于其中的一个或者两个。接着从今天开启你新的一年。不管怎样，每一天都可以是1月1日。忘记极端的旧时观念，无论何时只要你陷入了旧行为，就重新设立你的新习惯。“这可能会带给你动力，让你在工作中表现的更有效率。”

Spend time outside. 花点时间去户外

If you suffer from seasonal affective disorder (SAD)–and even if you don’t–get ten minutes of sunshine every day if possible, Moore says.

如果你饱受季节性情绪失调的折磨——就算你没有这份烦恼——尽可能地每天在阳光下呆上10分钟，摩尔说。

“Getting outside, if only for a little while, changes your perspective and reminds you that spring is just a little ways away.” Russell agrees. He says to take a break, if possible, with a bri stroll around the block of your office building. “The exposure will not only clear your head, it’ll brighten your outlook," he says.

“走到室外，哪怕只是一小会儿，都会让你豁然开朗，并且提醒你春天就快要来临了。”罗素也赞同这个提议。他建议要尽可能地休息一下，在你的办公楼附近做一个简短的散步。“沐浴在阳光下不仅会令你的头脑变得清晰，它还会让你豁然开朗。”他说。

Keep your office or cubicle warm. 令你的办公室或者小隔间保持温暖

If you live in a colder climate and you’re chilly at work, your focus will be on how to get warm instead of how best to complete your next project, says Andy Teach, a corporate veteran and author of From Graduation to Corporation: The Practical Guide to Climbing the Corporate Ladder One Rung at a Time.

如果你呆在一个寒冷的环境中，并且在工作时瑟瑟发抖，那么你所关注的重点就将会是如何取暖，而不是如何最好地完成你的下一个项目，安迪-蒂奇称，她是一位公司高管，同时还著有《从毕业到公司：稳步晋升的实用指导》。

“It’s important to have a comfortable work environment, so find out where the thermostat is in your office and perhaps more importantly, find out who controls the thermostat and make sure they keep it at a comfortable temperature for you and your co-workers.”

“拥有一个舒适的工作环境非常重要，所以搞清楚你办公室的自动调温器在哪儿，也许更为重要的是，搞清楚是谁在负责调节自动调温器，确保他们将温度调节到令你和你的同事感到舒适。”

Eat well. 合理饮食

Watch what you eat and drink, says executive coach Marian Morgan of Coaching That Works. “Comfort foods and sugary drinks will leave you sluggish and bloated. A heavy meal leading to a nap may sound like a good idea on the weekend, but especially during the week you’ll want to watch your sugar and carbohydrates intake,” she says. Warm yourself up with a cup of green tea to rresh, instead.

注意控制你的饮食，Coaching That Works公司高管教练玛丽安-摩根称，“安慰性食物和含糖饮料不但会令你行动迟缓，而且还会让你身材臃肿。吃得太饱会让你昏昏欲睡，这在周末听起来可能是个好主意，但特别是在工作日你必须要注意自己对于糖和碳水化合物的摄入量。”她说。作为替代，你可以喝上一杯绿茶来温暖身心，振奋精神。

Set goals. 设定目标

The wintertime is ideal for focusing on new projects, Russell says. Even if you’re feeling a bit sluggish, set new goals and volunteer for a new assignment that excites you. Your initiative will not only give you a sense of accomplishment and make you more productive, but it may even impress your boss.

冬天非常适合专注于新项目，罗素说。设定一些新的目标，并且主动提出承担一项能够令你感到振奋的新任务，即使你感觉有点动作迟缓。你的积极性将不仅带给你一种成就感，让你更有效率，它甚至还可能会给你的老板留下深刻的印象。

"Spring Clean" during the winter. 在冬季进行“春季大扫除”

“Many people wait until the weather warms up bore they do their spring cleaning at home, but you can do it at work when it’s freezing outside,” Teach says.

“很多人会等到天气暖和之后才在家里开始进行春季大扫除，但是你可以在室外寒风凛冽的时候进行办公室大扫除。” 蒂奇说。

Take advantage of the fact that you prer to be inside at this time of year. Go through your hard copy files and computer files and throw out or delete anything that is no longer usul to you. You will be less overwhelmed and will feel less stressed out if you do.

利用你每年的这个时候都更喜欢呆在室内这个事实。仔细检查你的复印文件和计算机文件，并且扔掉或者删除所有对你而言已经无用的东西。在大扫除的过程中你会感到更加轻松，压力骤减。

Stay healthy. 保持健康的身体

More people get sick during the winter months than the rest of the year with flu, colds, etc., Teach says. “If you miss work due to illness, it only makes it that much harder when you go back and you’re constantly trying to catch up. It hurts your productivity.”

大多数人在冬季的几个月间都比每年的其他时候更加容易生病，容易被流感和感冒等侵袭，蒂奇称。“如果你由于生病而缺勤，那么当你回去工作后只会更加忙碌，并且你得不断努力赶上工作进度。它降低了你的工作效率。”

While it’s sometimes difficult or impossible to not to get sick when everyone else is, do what you can (take vitamins, wash you hands, etc.) to prevent it.

虽然当每个人都生病的时候有时很难或者不可能不生病，但是你可以尽一切可能（服用维生素、洗手等等）来加以预防。

Take breaks. 注意休息

One of the best ways to increase productivity is to schedule planned breaks. A change in routine always nets positive results, especially from the winter doldrums, Morgan says. "A weekend away is renewing and energizing - whether it's boosting your vitamin D with an escape to sunny South Beach, or hitting the slopes in Vermont for some winter fun. If you plan ahead you will save some money."

提高工作效率的最佳途径之一就是制定休息计划。在例行常规中加入点变化总是会带来积极的效果，特别是在冬季的抑郁期间，摩根说，“在周末去旅行总是能够令 人重焕生机，并且精神振奋——无论你是跑去阳光明媚的迈阿密南海滩促进维生素D的生成，还是跑去佛蒙特州滑雪，享受一些冬季的乐趣。如果你提前计划，就可以节省下一些钱。”

Short on time and cash? Plan a personal day to visit museums, have lunch with a friend, enjoy a day of pampering. Breaking your routine will reward you in so many ways, she says.

没有这么多的时间和资金？那就计划一天属于自己的时间吧，你可以参观博物馆，与朋友共进午餐，享受放松的一天。打破你的例行常规将会在很多方面给你带来回报，她说。

Follow weather reports closely. 密切关注天气预报

There’s nothing worse than being late for work because of the weather, Teach says. “If it’s going to rain, sleet, hail, or snow the next day, then leave earlier so that you can arrive to work on time and not be stressed out first thing in the morning." If you're prepared, you'll be more focused and productive when you arrive.

没有什么比由于天气原因而在上班时迟到更糟糕的事情了，蒂奇称。“如果第二天将要下雨、雨夹雪、冰雹或者雪，那么就早点出门，这样你就可以准时到达公司，而不用为早晨的第一件事而慌慌张张。”如果你做了充分准备的话，你到公司的时候注意力就会更加集中，并且工作效率也会更高。

Be social. 多和同事交往

Avoid eating lunch at your desk alone. Ask co-workers to join you in the cafeteria or at a nearby restaurant, Russell says. “Being social helps break your isolation and connect in new ways with others at work.” The happier you are, the more productive you’ll be.

不要在你的办公桌上单独享用午餐。邀请同事和你一起去自助食堂或者附近的餐厅吃饭，罗素说。“多和同事交往有助于打破你的孤立，并且用新的途径与同事产生联系。”你的快乐指数越高，你的工作效率也就会越高。
